Neat freak.
I want someone who lies smack-dab at the middlepoint of total slob and scrubs-his-baseboards-with-a-toothbrush.
Otherwise we just wouldn't be compatible.7 -

Otherwise we just wouldn't be compatible.
let's see....
car wash usually once a week - interior & exterior
laundry, at least one load of laundry a night (usually 2) - sort/wash/dry/place
bed linens washed once a week
home rule - nobody wakes up to dishes in the sink (clean or not)
floors / hardwood / cleaned twice a week
no boxes or deliveries sitting in the foyer
bed is made each and every morning - no exceptions
dusting wood furniture - hopefully once a week ( I hate doing this )
Dad's USMC dialed-in & squared away lifestyle stuck.

Thats it! If that's the criteria for a woman...

Quite possibly. There are whole subsets of philosophy devoted to this concept. Illusionism.3 -
^ I wouldn't make it in your house.
Yesterday's dishes still in the sink.
Laundry gets done when quarters can be procured (thanks, "national coin shortage." pfft.
Floors mopped when mom comes over to help.

That's the Calvinist worldview. That and the concept of total depravity.
I'll go as far as to say that I won't date any woman who believes in the concept of free will over determinism. Life's too short to humour those dum dums.1 -
- someone who believes that people aren't masters of their own destiny. Yeah no, I got better things to do than let mythical sky people determine my future for me.
You want to believe in those things, I won't stop you, but don't push them on other people.4 -

You know... I've become a proponent of destiny in recent years...
Maybe one day, a mix of life experiences and influences will change my mind but then that would just be destiny all over again...
Fact is, we can't go back and change the decisions we've already made, so what makes us think we can change the decision we've already made in the future...
I mean tomorrow's choices are already on the way and my decisions are pretty much already set, just as the choices are... It's just one big cause and effect nexus...2 -

I was thinking in the more religious aspect; that a person believes they have no actual free will or any choice (no matter how small). That a higher power will lead them to all the appropriate answers without any intervention on their own part. I think it's fine to have faith in something outside of yourself (I won't argue it, anyway), but to believe you are only the puppet of an unseen hand is so... dystopian to me. I may have been born in the 80s, but I definitely don't align with dystopian ideals or theory, sorry.
I suppose you don't need to be religious to think that free will is an illusion; again, I mention Illusionism, a philosophy that actually discusses and dissects this concept, but Determinism is a whole field in and of itself. You might look into it if you haven't already. You'd make a good philosopher.2 -

I don't think there's any such thing as being a master of your own destiny, "mythical sky people" (nice) or no. Every choice you've ever made was pre determined 14.5 billion years ago within a microsecond of the creation of the universe when the distribution of atoms and energy occurred. Create a million universes with the exact same starting conditions and you'll live the exact same life a million times. We're no more capable of altering or destiny as is a lifeless rock floating in outter space. We just have delusions of grandeur that make us believe the universe has different rules for us just because we're conscious of it.0
